Emily's Famous Parmesan and Peppercorn Ranch Dressing

By: your mom 
"Ranch dressing is so overpriced at the store, and it just tastes really fake to me. This one tastes more like the expensive kind in the produce department. Made with yogurt instead of sour cream, you can eat it with a spoon and not feel guilty."
